high-tech exports to russia. president obama said he didn't see them as appropriate in this environment. but of course, you have the questions, are these sanctions going to work? remember, this is the third round of u.s. sanctions. and will they target putin directly this time? well, the president said they won't necessarily work and that the goal is not to target president vladimir putin personally, but to try to change russia's calculus in the situation. and the president's words from yesterday, "russia has not lifted a finger to de-escalate the situation." here are some of president obama's words from today. >> the goal here is not to go after mr. putin personally. the goal is to change his calculus with respect to how the current actions that he's engaging in in ukraine could have an adverse impact on the russian economy over the long haul and to encourage him to actually walk the walk and not just talk the talk. >> reporter: yeah, that long haul is what the administration has really been focused on, to try t

you're talking about going to the russia of border where russia spent 20 times what ukraine does on russia's budget. it's not clear what the ukrainian army is. remember, a large part of the ukrainian army in the east are ethnic russians. it's not entirely clear that they would side with the government. the sanctions route is the one that has to be tried and the german chancellor seems pretty firm that the europeans would join in broader sanctions and they want to keep ratcheting them up. it's important to know how much of an effect they have had because they have created so much uncertainty about russia that no one is investing. the stock market is down 13%. russia tried to borrow money on the international markets last week. they had to withdraw the offering because they couldn't borrow any money. of course, huge amounts of capital has fled russia. let's keep in mind that the economic sanctions strategy could work if implemented and let's hope that that is a track that these two leaders are on. the sense i got from meeting with merkel, which i did this morning, is that do europeans and the
